Directionality Explained

Oh dear, oh my... 
Talking about now finding a (my) new hang up. 
Directionalism. Hmph! 🤪

It was suggest somewhere here before, like keep turning them speaker cables' round (an' round it goes...) and THEN 'report' back here, forst any more is ventured, um. 

Dang, like are you now a true believer of the one or other here disputed persuation...? 

Guess what, I now clearly realised having this here psychological block in doing ANY of the sort. At ALL.
Period. Amen. Basta. Genug. 🤪

Like: DON'T TOUCH MY CABLE!
Lest I'd have reason to setup a post 📯 on #metoo! 🙈 

Where does that leave ME?
Quite mentally balanced and contented, despite not knowing squat about the effects of directionality. Why, cause I's not goin' against da flow. That's why! 🤞👋

Get some peace of mind I say, follow the writing, alternatively the chevrons on a sleeve (if you got any) and if all fails, the - > whats name dinges, if you the proud ower of an electron microscope 🔬 <- this ain't good enough, I dare say. 😅

Then if you so wish, come back and tell the tale, otherwise... just enjoy the result, AND of course your new found mucical experience, what ever the result. 🎶 🎵🎶 🎷🎻🎸🎹💃

Meanwhile I'm happy to nurse my ignorance on the sunject. 🤷‍♂️

I have to say it is a bit naive to think one can make some basic measurements of the cables and then trying to correlate that to human perception of music ... just saying.

>>>> It’s not naive at all. That’s what HiFi Tuning some time ago did for fuses. Their measurements of the voltage drop across various brands of fuses, both high end and stock, in both directions 🔛 correlate to listening results. The results are consistent, repeatable and transferrable. Yes, I know what you’re thinking, I never heard that before.

A fuse always sounds best when the lowest voltage drop is in the direction toward the speaker. 🔚 You could almost say it’s a Law. Furthermore, there is the empirical evidence of thousands of high end fuse owners who report directionality of the fuses. Cables, too. Hel-loo!

At the current time I am sure that we are not even asking the "correct" questions. And without those questions how do you measure? What do you measure? What scale is to be used?
Do we really ever use simply "one’, sense at a time? What about that pesky, "Sixth" sense?
How much of a role does "individual perception", play?
Simply one’s mood can change any "perception". Hence how does that variable factor?
And in how many ways? New scale?

>>>>As I just posted, this is not some new science or untested theory. The voltage drop across a wire is different for each direction. The best sound of any cable or fuse or wire is when the voltage drop is lowest for the direction toward the speakers. 🔚 Even though the voltage drop difference is quite tiny the correlation to the sound is 🔜consistent🔙 
We still don’t know the mechanism for how/why the sound is changed by physical asymmetry of wire. But I’m open for offers. 

Sound and hearing the amazing things we know in the 21st century.

 Hee hee, "In a nut-shell", "That", Is all I was saying really.....
Same-day, Different nut-shell!

Quote;  The voltage drop across a wire is different for each direction. 

And that quote above is "To me", empirical evidence. And is quite difficult to argue with!
 I guess I sometimes get "stuck" when the mechanism or the "Why", and/or the "How" are yet unknowns, and undefined.
But that is just me.
